All across Canada , considerable attention is being placed on alcohol and other drug use in the workplace and on the opportunity - or need - to address associated problems through workplace programs, such as an Employee Assistance Program (EAP). Many firms view the workplace as a ready avenue for promoting a healthy lifestyle and believe that it represents not only an opportunity for the implementation of recovery programs, but more importantly, an opportunity for focused prevention initiatives as well.
In its simplest form, alcohol and other drug misuse by employees can have negative impacts on workplace performance and present serious safety risks. Recognizing this, many Canadian companies have responded by developing workplace policies that deal with alcohol and drug use. However, policies are not sufficient to equip employees with the life skills necessary to preemptively manage their behavior, whether that is inside or outside the workplace.
As part of a corporate employee assistance program, Ladybug's Know Your AQ™ training program can teach employees the much underrated skill of responsible drinking. Know Your AQ dissects the science of intoxication versus impairment and helps participants understand the difference. Our Corporate Program takes participants beyond zero tolerance and imparts the science, psychology, the legalities and the unending research needed to find a solution to society's most pervasive issue… alcohol misuse.
Providing Know Your AQ to your employees as part of your in-house training program or as part of an EAP goes beyond creating a safe workplace. It delivers the gift of knowledge and provides a life long skill.
